Another Time Another Life

I know now what is going on
I know now what my dreams are about
And why I suffer so much.
My dreams have happened already
My thoughts about past experiences,
Experiences that i've never been through,
Well at least not in this life time,
Are flashbacks of my previous life,
A life where I was much more fortunate than I am now.
I was surrounded by friends,
I was filled with money,
I had it all except morals.
It seems like, from what I could piece together
From dreams and thoughts,
That I cared only for myself.
I dined in the finest restaraunts
Covered with expensive clothes,
Those who called me their friend I betrayed,
I was disloyal to those who loved me,
Those who I didn't know I disrespected.
Life for me then was about making money
And bettering myself even if it meant hurting others.
Now I live in misery,
Surrounded by villains and scoundrels.
I have no friends,
I have no money.
I live day by day begging for food.
I'm covered in dirty rags that I found.
Whats worst is not that I live the way I live,
But that I remember that another time I lived better.
I had it all to be happy then and I didn't even know it
So now it's impossible for me to ever find happiness,
I recklessly treated life like a game
But when I got game over there was no restart.
